More on Olympic Gold
Description from Wikipedia:
Olympic Gold is the official video game of the XXV Olympic Summer Games, hosted by Barcelona, Spain in 1992. It was released for the Sega consoles, Mega Drive/Genesis and Master System, and Sega's handheld, Game Gear.
Developed internally by US Gold, the game was the first to have an official license from the IOC; it also was sponsored by Coca-Cola, and the game featured both the company logo on a zeppelin above the scoreboard, but also the company jingle.
The game uses button mashing as the main part of gameplay, but in three events it isn't used (archery, diving) or is slow-paced (swimming). Graphically, it did not make full use of the Mega Drive/Genesis' capabilities, and looked only a bit more colorful than the 8-bit counterpart, but still manages to be marginally better than Olympic Summer Games, released four years later.
Each computer athlete has his own name (fake) and nationality (choosing from UK, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, USA, Japan and the Unified Team, everyone with its own anthem snippet) and actual strengths and weaknesses: J. Balen, for instance, is a frequent 100 m and 110 m hurdles record breaker but only an average hammer thrower. Also, each computer controlled player seems better in a particular event depending on his country: Germans usually take the top spots in archery, Italians on swimming, Russians on pole vault, Americans on sprinting and so on.
